Exhibit 99

Disclaimer<br>Forward<br>-<br>Looking Statements<br>This presentation contains “forward<br>-<br>looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Sec<br>urities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward<br>-<br>looking statements include, without limitation, statements<br>concerning plans, estimates, calculations, forecasts and projections with respect to the anticipated future performance of th<br>e C<br>ompany. These statements are often, but not always, identified by words such as “may”, “might”, “should”,<br>“could”, “predict”, “potential”, “believe”, “expect”, “continue”, “will”, “anticipate”, “seek”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”,<br>“p<br>rojection”, “would”, “annualized”, “target” and “outlook”, or the negative version of those words or other comparable<br>words of a future or forward<br>-<br>looking nature.<br>Forward<br>-<br>looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on ou<br>r current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding our business, future plans and strategies,<br>projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward<br>-<br>looking statements relate t<br>o the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are<br>difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ mate<br>ria<br>lly from those indicated in the forward<br>-<br>looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these<br>forward<br>-<br>looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially f<br>rom those indicated in the forward<br>-<br>looking statements include, among others, the following: interest rate<br>risk, including the effects of recent and anticipated rate increases by the Federal Reserve; fluctuations in the values of th<br>e s<br>ecurities held in our securities portfolio, including as a result of rising interest rates; business and economic<br>conditions generally and in the financial services industry, nationally and within our market area, including rising rates of<br>in<br>flation; the negative effects of the ongoing COVID<br>-<br>19 pandemic, including its effects on the economic<br>environment, our clients and our operations, including due to supply chain disruptions, as well as any changes to federal, st<br>ate<br>or local government laws, regulations or orders in connection with the pandemic; loan concentrations in our<br>portfolio; the overall health of the local and national real estate market; our ability to successfully manage credit risk; o<br>ur<br>ability to maintain an adequate level of allowance for loan losses; new or revised accounting standards, including<br>as a result of the future implementation of the Current Expected Credit Loss standard; the concentration of large loans to ce<br>rta<br>in borrowers; the concentration of large deposits from certain clients; our ability to successfully manage<br>liquidity risk, especially in light of recent excess liquidity at the Bank; our dependence on non<br>-<br>core funding sources and our c<br>ost of funds; our ability to raise additional capital to implement our business plan; our ability to implement our<br>growth strategy and manage costs effectively; developments and uncertainty related to the future use and availability of some<br>re<br>ference rates, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate, as well as other alternative reference rates; the<br>composition of our senior leadership team and our ability to attract and retain key personnel; talent and labor shortages an<br>hig<br>h rates of employment turnover; the occurrence of fraudulent activity, breaches or failures of our<br>information security controls or cybersecurity<br>-<br>related incidents; interruptions involving our information technology and telecom<br>munications systems or third<br>-<br>party servicers; competition in the financial services industry, including from<br>nonbank competitors such as credit unions and “fintech” companies; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; the co<br>mme<br>ncement and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings and regulatory actions against us; the<br>impact of recent and future legislative and regulatory changes, including changes to federal and state corporate tax rates; t<br>he<br>imposition of tariffs or other governmental policies impacting the value of products produced by our<br>commercial borrowers; severe weather, natural disasters, wide spread disease or pandemics (including the COVID<br>-<br>19 pandemic), act<br>s of war or terrorism or other adverse external events, including the Russian invasion of Ukraine;<br>potential impairment to the goodwill we recorded in connection with our past acquisition; changes to U.S. or state tax laws,<br>reg<br>ulations and guidance, including the new 1% excise tax on stock buybacks by publicly traded companies; and<br>any other risks described in the “Risk Factors” sections of reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Com<br>mis<br>sion.<br>Any forward<br>-<br>looking statement made by us in this press release is based only on information currently available to us and speaks<br>only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward<br>-<br>looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, futur<br>e d<br>evelopments or otherwise. Certain of the information contained in this presentation is derived from<br>information provided by industry sources. Although we believe that such information is accurate and that the sources from whi<br>ch<br>it has been obtained are reliable, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of, and have not independently<br>verified, such information.<br>Use of Non<br>-<br>GAAP financial measures<br>In addition to the results presented in accordance with U.S. General Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company rou<br>tin<br>ely supplements its evaluation with an analysis of certain non<br>-<br>GAAP financial measures. The Company<br>believes these non<br>-<br>GAAP financial measures, in addition to the related GAAP measures, provide meaningful information to investor<br>s to help them understand the Company’s operating performance and trends, and to facilitate<br>comparisons with the performance of peers. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results dete<br>rmi<br>ned in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non<br>-<br>GAAP performance measures<br>that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of non<br>-<br>GAAP disclosures to the comparable GAAP measures are provided i<br>n this presentation.<br>2
